Notes

• If you do not perform learning steps within two minutes, learning mode ends.
• If you do not perform Step 4 within 10 seconds after Step 3, the display turns back to the display in Step 2. (All the learnable keys flash.) In this case, perform Step 3 again while the display is flashing,
• If “NG” appears while learning, the memory is full. To free memory, clear learned functions from keys that you do not use often (page 15). Then continue the learning steps.
• If you touch a key by mistake, while pressing “RESET” key, press the mistaken key. Then repeat from Step 2 to continue learning.

If the Commander does not seem to be working

If the learned key or button does not operate properly, teach once again. (For example, if the volume becomes very loud after pressing the + button only once, noise may have interfered during the learning procedure.)

For accurate learning

• Do not move the remote units during the learning procedure.
• Be sure to keep holding down the button of your component's remote control until you hear the confirmation beep.
• Use fresh battery in both remote units.
• Avoid learning in places under direct sunlight or a strong fluorescent light.
• The remote control detector area may differ depending on each remote unit. If learning does not work, try changing the positions of the two remote control units.

IMPORTANT

Be sure to place the Commander out of the reach of small children or pets. Components such as air-conditioners, heaters, electric appliances, and electric shutters or curtains receiving an infrared signal can be dangerous if misused.

When you teach the signals for a double cassette deck

Press DECK B/A to select deck A or B.

When you teach the REC (record) signal for VCR1, 2, or 3

In Step 3, while pressing the REC key, press the ▶ key to display both keys, then follow Steps 4 to 6. The Commander can not learn the remote control signal with just the REC key lit up.

When you teach signals on the △ or ☑️ buttons

For components other than TV or AMP, be sure to read the notes on pages 17 and 18.

To display only the frequently used keys

You can hide keys you do not use. This makes operations even easier to understand, when the components have many keys.

After Step 2 on page 13, while pressing the RESET key, press the key you want to hide (flashing). The pressed key changes to slower flashing and will no longer be displayed during remote control operations.

To display it again, perform the same procedure again.

Note

You can not hide a key which has “learned” any signal.

Changing or erasing the function of a learned key or button

To change the learned function, clear it first and perform learning again.

To clear the learned function of a single key or button

1 After Step 2 on page 13, while pressing the RESET key, press the key or button you want to erase.

The cleared key flashes together with other learnable keys.

Using Non-Preset Remote Control Operations — Learning Function (continued)

To clear all signals learned for a specific component

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press the corresponding Component Select button.

When you want to clear signals learned for DECK B/A

Press DECKB/A to display “DECK A” or “DECK B”. You can not clear both decks at the same time.

2 While pressing the RESET key, press that Component Select button again. The Commander beeps, and the learned contents are cleared. The keys for the component return to their original states before learning.

Note

If you perform the steps above when no signal is “learned”, the component code setting (page 7) will be reset to the factory setting. Note that for DECK B/A, if you reset either deck (A or B), the component code for both A and B will be reset to the factory setting.

Controlling the Volume of Visual Components Connected to an Audio System

The Commander is factory preset based on the assumption that you hear the sound of your visual components from your TV speakers, and that you hear the sound of your audio components from the loudspeakers connected to your amplifier.

The following table shows the factory setting of which volume would be controlled for each component.

Component Select button	Controls the volume of
TV	TV
VCR1,2,3	TV
SAT/CBL	TV
DVD	TV
AMP	amplifier
CD	amplifier
MD/DAT	amplifier
DECK B/A	amplifier
TUNER	amplifier
DSP	amplifier

This feature enables you to control the volume of your TV or amplifier without having to select TV or AMP each time you want to control the volume.

For example, to control the volume while using a VCR, you don't need to press the TV button to control the TV volume.

Notes

- If you have programmed any signal on the or × buttons by learning (page 12) for certain components, that signal will be transmitted instead of controlling the volume of TV or amplifier when you select that component.

- When the or ※ buttons of TV or AMP have "learned" any signal, that signal will be transmitted only when you select TV or AMP. When you select other components, the original signals preset for TV or AMP will be transmitted.

To change the Factory Preset of the Volume Control

However, if your visual components are connected to an audio system, you probably hear TV or VCR sound from the loudspeakers via your amplifier, not from your TV speakers. In this case, you need to change the factory preset so that you can control the volume of your visual components without first having to switch to the amplifier.

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press + and - .

You hear a beep and the volume control setting of visual components (TV, VCR1, 2 and 3, SAT/CBL, and DVD) changes to the displayed component.

Notes

• If you have already programmed the or ※ button of each component any signals by "learning", the procedure above will not change the function of the and ※ buttons.
• If you have programmed volume control signals on ∅ or ☑× buttons of TV or AMP by the “learning” function (page 12), you can only use that signal when you select TV or AMP. For other component, the preset volume control signals for TV or AMP (depending on the above setting procedure) will be transmitted. To use the new signals, you need to program each button for each component by the learning procedure (page 12).

Executing a Series of Commands

— System Control Function

With the System Control function, you can program a series of operating commands, and execute them by pressing just one button.

For example, when you watch a video, a series of operations like the ones below are necessary.

Example:

1 Power on the TV.
2 Power on the video (VCR 1).
3 Power on the amplifier.
4 Set the input selector of the amplifier to VIDEO 1.
5 Set the input mode of the TV to VIDEO.
6 Start video playback.

You can program up to 16 consecutive operation steps to each of the SYSTEM CONTROL 1, 2 or 3. At the factory, SYSTEM CONTROL 1 and 2 are not programmed yet, but a series of Power-on Commands for Sony Components is programmed on the SYSTEM CONTROL 3 button.

Programming a series of commands to the SYSTEM CONTROL buttons

Example: To program the procedure on the left to the SYSTEM CONTROL 1 button

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press one of the SYSTEM CONTROL buttons (in this case, SYSTEM CONTROL 1).

All the component names flash.

If a series of commands is already programmed on that button That program will be displayed. (Note that the SYSTEM CONTROL 3 button is factory preset with standard Power-on Command for nearly all Sony Components.) To program a new series of operations, clear the program first (see page 21).

2 Press the Component Select button for the component to operate.

The keys for the selected component flash.

3 Press key(s) or button(s) for the desired operation.

For example; to turn on the TV, press one of the numeric keys.

The remote control signal for the pressed key is transmitted, so you can check that each component actually operates the way you want.

Executing a Series of Commands — System Control Function (continued)

4 Repeat Steps 2 and 3 and program the buttons and keys for the series of operations.

In this example, press the following buttons and keys.

graph LR
    A["VCR1"] --> B["Switch"]
    C["AMP"] --> D["Switch"]
    E["TV"] --> F["Input"]
    G["VCR1"] --> H["Switch"]
    I["→"] --> J["→"]
    K["→"] --> L["→"]
    M["→"] --> N["→"]

5 When you have programmed all the keys, press COMMANDER OFF.

Notes

• If you interrupt the procedure at any point for over two minutes, the setting mode ends and the series of commands will be programmed to that point. In this case, clear the program and start again from Step 1 to set the entire program from the beginning. You can not continue from where you let off.
• If a SYSTEM CONTROL button has already “learned” a remote control signal (see page 28), “NG” flashes and you hear a beep to inform you that you can not program on this button. Clear the learned contents first (see page 29).
• If you change the component code number (page 7) or program a new signal by learning (page 12) on a key or button that has been programmed in the series of commands of the System Control function, the new signal will be transmitted when you press the corresponding SYSTEM CONTROL button.

Tip for programming on SYSTEM CONTROL button

After the series of input commands is executed, the Commander displays the touch keys of the component of the final step. By programming an often-used component's command as the final step, you can save the step of pressing a Component Select button when you start operating that component.

Executing the programmed commands

Press the desired SYSTEM CONTROL button (1, 2 or 3). The programmed remote control signals are transmitted in the programmed order to operate each component.

SYSTEM CONTROL

At the same time that each remote control signal is transmitted, the corresponding key is displayed.

Notes on System Control Operation

• If the remote control detectors of the components are too far apart, or if something is blocking them, some of the components may not operate consecutively even after you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button.
• If some of the components did not operate correctly because of the above or for any other reason, always set all the components back to the states they were in before you pressed the SYSTEM CONTROL button. Failure to do this can result in incorrect operation when you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button again.
• Some components may not always be powered on by the System Control function. This is because the power of the component gets on and off alternatively when receiving the power on/off signal. In this case, check the operating component's power on/off state before using the System Control function.
• Some of the components may not accept consecutive remote control signals. For example, a TV generally does not react to next signal right after the Power-on signal. So, a series of commands such as TV Power-on and input select may not work properly. In this case, insert other signals like the example below;

TV Power-on → VCR Power-on → VCR play back → TV input select

Changing the programmed commands

To clear programmed commands

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press one of the SYSTEM CONTROL 1, 2, or 3 button.

The key operations programmed for that button are displayed in order.

The series of the Power-on commands for Sony Components are set and the programmed operations are displayed in order.

Adding an Extra Function to the Component Select Buttons

Programming the Power-On Command of the Selected Component (for Sony Components only)

When using Sony components, you can program the Power-on signal for each component on a Component Select button. You can select the desired component and power it on by just pressing that Component Select button.

Example: To program the TV button

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press △ - and the desired Component Select button.

When the Power-on command is programmed, you will hear a beep and “ON” appears on the display. (The display goes off when you release the buttons.)

To clear the Power-on command

Repeat the procedure above.

You will hear a beep and the following display appears.

Notes

• When a signal has been already learned for a Component Select button (see paga 24), the Power-on command can not be programmed.
• When you program another signal using the learning function to a Component Select button (page 24) for which a Power-on command has been already programmed, the learned signal overwrites the Power-on command. If the learned signal is cleared afterward, the Power-on command will also be erased and the button will return to its status before being programmed.

Adding an Extra Function to the Component Select Buttons (continued)

Adding a Command that is Required when Selecting a Component

In addition to the original function of selecting the operating keys and buttons of the desired component, the Component Select button can have another remote control signal by “learning” (see page 12).

For example, if you always have to change input select of the amplifier to CD when listening to the CD player, program the signal of “changing the amplifier’s input select” to the CD button of this Commander. Then whenever you press the CD button, it automatically works as the original CD Component Select button and changes also the amplifier input select to CD.

Example : To program the input select signal of your amplifier to the CD button

1 Place the RM-AV2000T head to head with your component's remote control.

Remote control of your component

2 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press + and PROGRAM +.

“LEARN” appears and all the component names flash.

3 Press the desired Component Select button.

The selected component name stays lit and “LEARN” flashes.

4 Press and hold down the button on your component's remote control (amplifier in this example) until you hear a beep.

5 Press COMMANDER OFF.

To clear the learned function of the Component Select button

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press + and PROGRAM +.
2 While pressing the RESET key, press the Component Select button which you want to clear.

Note

Even if that Component Select button has been programmed with the Power-on command (page 23), you can program any signal on it by the procedure above. However, the new signal overwrites the Power-on command, and even after you clear this new signal, the Power-on command will not resume.

Turning Off the Power of All Components by a Single Button Operation

— System Power-Off Function (for Sony Components only)

When the System Power-Off function is active, you can turn off all Sony components just by pressing the COMMANDER OFF button for three seconds.

To set the System Power-Off function

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press PROGRAM – and ∠+.

When the System Power-Off function is set, “☐ OFF” appears on the display. (The display goes off when you release the buttons.)

To cancel the System Power-Off function

Repeat the procedure above. The following display appears when the System Power-Off function is disabled.

Assigning Other Components to the Component Select Buttons

You can assign another component to any empty Component Select button. For example, if you have two VCRs and two CD players, you can use the VCR3 button as the Component Select button for your second CD player.

Note

Once you assign another component to a Component Select button, the setting of the component code number will be erased. The component code number will not return even if you reset the newly assigned component and turn back to the original component.

Example: To assign a CD player to the VCR3 button

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press VCR3.

The keys for that component (VCR3) flash.

2 While pressing VCR3, press CD.

The Commander beeps and the keys for the new component (CD) flash. The new component name (CD) flash and the original component name (VCR3) stays lit.

When you assign a cassette deck (DECK B/A) to another Component Select button

You cannot assign both decks A and B at a time to one button.

If the desired deck (A or B) is not displayed, finish the procedure by pressing COMMANDER OFF and press DECK B/A to select the desired deck, and then start over from Step 1.

3 • If the newly assigned component is a Sony component, press COMMANDER OFF to finish this procedure.
- If you need to set the component code, follow the steps on pages 7 – 10.
- If you need to program some signals by the “learning” function, follow the Steps 1 and 3 to 6 on pages 13 and 14.

Note

If you hear beeps and “NG” flashes on the display when you press the Component Select button at Step 1, you can not assign another component because some of the keys or buttons are already programmed with the learning function (see page 12).

Try the above procedure again after clearing the learned signals for that component.

To assign an LD player (VD) or Cable box (CBL) to another Component Select button

If the desired component (“VD” or “CBL”) is not displayed, before Step 3, repeat Step 2 again so that the desired component (“VD” or “CBL”) flashes on the display.

To use the Commander after assigning other components

Press the reassigned Component Select button. The keys of the new component are displayed and you can use the desired component. Note however that only the original component name is displayed.

(In this example, the display would be like the one below.)

To reset a Component Select button to its original setting

1 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press the Component Select button which you want to reset.
2 While pressing the RESET key, press that Component Select button again. The setting for that Component Select button returns to the factory setting.

Note

If you have programmed some signals on any of the keys or buttons with the learning function (see page 12) after you reassigned your component, the two steps above only clears the “learned” signals. In this case, perform Step 2 again to reset to the original Component Select button.

Programming a Frequently Used Key Operation to SYSTEM CONTROL Buttons

In addition to their original System Control functions (see page 18), SYSTEM CONTROL 1, 2 or 3 buttons can be programmed to “learn” any remote control signal.

As they operate independently from other buttons, SYSTEM CONTROL 1, 2 or 3 buttons can work as one-touch buttons without any preceding operation such as pressing a Component Select button to select a component.

This is useful if you prefer having the SYSTEM CONTROL button as a “one-touch” button for a single operation rather than executing a series of commands.

Example: To store the On/Off signal of an air-conditioner to the SYSTEM CONTROL 2 button

1 Place the RM-AV2000T head to head with the remote control of the air-conditioner.

Remote control of your component

2 While pressing COMMANDER OFF, press PROGRAM + and ∠+.

“LEARN” appears and the display that stands for the learnable SYSTEM CONTROL buttons flash in the display panel.

If a signal has been learned on that button, the display stays lit. If you want to program on that button, clear the signal first (page 29).

3 Press the SYSTEM CONTROL button you want to teach.

Troubleshooting

If you have problems setting up or using the Remote Commander, first check the batteries (page 5), then check the items below.

Symptom	Remedy
You cannot operate the components.	Go closer to the component. The maximum operating distance is approximately 10 m (32.8 ft).Check that you are aiming the Commander directly at the component, and that there are no obstructions between the Commander and the component.Power on the components first, if necessary.Make sure you have pressed the correct Component Select button. In case of SAT/CBL, DVD or DECK B/A, make sure the desired component is displayed.Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For example, if your component didn’t come with a remote commander, it probably isn’t capable of being controlled by a remote commander.If your visual components are connected to an audio system, make sure you’ve set up the Commander as described in “Controlling the Volume of Visual Components Connected to an Audio System”. (page 17)
You cannot operate the components even after setting the component code numbers.	Set the component code correctly (page 7). If the code that is listed first for your component doesn’t work, try all the codes for your component in the order in which they are listed in the supplied “Component Code Numbers”.Some features may not be preset. If some or all of the keys do not function correctly even after you have set the component codes, then use the learning function to program the remote control signals for the component. (page 12)
You cannot operate a component even after you programmed the remote control signals with the “learning” function.	Make sure that the Remote Commander has learned the correct signals. If not, try the learning procedure again. (page 12)
“NG” flashes during learning.	Clear infrequently used learned keys (page 15), then carry out learning operations.See “For accurate learning” on page 14 and try the learning procedure again. (page 12)
“NG” displays during learning.	Another remote control signal has been already programmed on that key or button by the learning function. Clear learned functions (page 15) and then try the learning procedure again. (page 12)
A system control program does not function correctly.	Make sure that you have programmed the commands in the correct order. (page 18)Try changing the orientation of the Commander. If that does not help, try placing the components as close to each other as possible.Check the status of the components and make sure that you have set the components properly to receive commands from the SYSTEM CONTROL buttons.
The power of the Commander turns off by itself.	This Commander is preset at the factory to switch the power off automatically after 10 minutes if left unused. (Auto Power-Off, page 32) You can change the power-off time from 10 to 90 minutes, or set the Commander not to power off automatically.
